Chapter 1 Introduction
At the beginning of the year, I wanted to write a collection of stories.
In the past six months, from the beginning of editing and planning to the finalization, this collection has undergone many changes. At the beginning, I only conceived three stories: "Heather", "The One I Loved Most" and "Zhou Rongrong's Diary".
Later I thought, I have written many stories of youth that are either warm, sad or sweet, and I want to try something different. It is a collection of stories anyway, so I might as well write a few more stories.
So, there are other stories that follow.
In this collection, there are joy, sorrow, and many other emotions, as well as a style that I want to try but have never written before. There is also a world that I long for , a life that I want to live, a simple and foolish past, and a peaceful and contented present.
But most of these stories are fictional, and occasionally a few are adapted from people around me. These prototypes have more or less some of my own shadows.
Because I am a writer who likes to put my feelings into the text. For example, if I want to have a certain kind of love in real life, I will realize it in the book; if I want to be a certain kind of person in real life, I will also realize it in the book; if I want to go somewhere in real life, I will also realize it in the book.
This feeling will make you feel that you can wander infinitely between the lines.
However, if you dream too much, it becomes wishful thinking.
Writing the same story too many times will not only make readers lose their sense of freshness , but will also cause a certain bottleneck in your own writing.
So this time, I took a different path from before.
After so many years of writing, I feel a little capricious this time.
Previously, many readers have privately asked me many questions , and I would like to take this opportunity to answer everyone.
The first question is: Sister Xiaoluo, I also like to write novels, but I can never write well. Do you have any tips?
The second question is: Sister Xiaoluo, do you only know how to write this type of novel? Do you not know how to write other types of novels?
First of all, to answer the first question, I am not good at teaching, so I don’t know how to teach you how to write. If you don’t delve into the meaning of the word “trick”, then my trick is to practice more.
What are you polishing? Polish your work, watch more, practice more, learn more, polish away all the bad parts of your work. In this world, it is difficult for lazy people to succeed. If you have a fortune of tens of millions since you were born, then just ignore what I said.
Next, to answer the second question, I can only smile and keep silent for now. You will know whether I only write the same type of novels after reading this collection.
There are many authors who don't only know how to write one type of novel, they just like it.
This collection is probably the work that I put the most effort into and spent the longest time on.
I hope that everyone who gets this book will like it.
